noodley

Vegan MoFo was a lot of fun, wasn't it? I think I managed to post every single day except for one, very early in the month -- can you believe it? Maybe this exercise will encourage me to keep posting more often?!!?!! Who knows?

Know what else I learned from Vegan MoFo? Dan and I eat mostly vegan food, naturally. I've never really even thought about it, but honestly, we don't eat much dairy or eggs. I do bake with butter and eggs on occasion, and we do love our pizza, breakfast burritos, and occasional poached eggs, but we also love tofu, tempeh, seitan, beans, and all manner of fruits and veggies! It's been fun returning to some of my vegan baking roots this past month, and I may continue to do so in the future; however, I gotta confess . . . I'm gonna make pizza this weekend! Mmmmmmmm! :)

To wrap up Vegan MoFo, I made what we fondly call "Asian Noodley Soup" --I make several variations on this theme, this one being one of my favorites. Bean thread noodles were smothered in a lemongrass-ginger broth, tofu, bok choy, red bell pepper, and tons of shiitake mushrooms! Yum! Dan said tonight that this type of meal is one of his favorite things that I make -- wow! High praise!
